Dependency to mrwebrtc.dll not working properly for .Net Framework 4.6.2

[mothermetabot]

Describe the bug Consuming the MixedReality.WebRTC library throws an error:

Unable to load DLL 'mrwebrtc': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create WPF project. (.Net Framework 4.6.2)
2. Add any code consuming the library (e.g. var deviceList = await DeviceVideoTrackSource.GetCaptureDevicesAsync();)
3. Build and Run

Expected behavior The code is supposed to execute without errors.

Environment

• MR-WebRTC version : last stable version 2.0.0
• Platform: Windows Desktop, OS Windows 10, WPF
• Architecture: x86
• Target device: Windows Desktop

Additional context I installed the Nuget package through Visual Studio 2019 Community. The project builds but fails immediately when I call a function from the WebRTC API. I cannot find any mrwebrtc.dll in the bin folder, is this normal behavior(see Exception Message above)? In the Solution Explorer, I can see Microsoft.MixedReality.WebRTC library under References and the respective DLL in the bin folder.

@mothermetabot I downloaded the NuGet package manually and I confirm that mrwebrtc.dll is in runtimes\win10-x86\native, so should be automatically deployed. I am not sure why it is not. Can you please confirm by manually copying the DLL next to your executable, to see if that solves things?

@efsjouw the bug report mentions x86 Desktop.

System.DllNotFoundException: mrwebrtc assembly: type: member:(null) at Microsoft.MixedReality.WebRTC.DeviceVideoTrackSource.<>c.<GetCaptureDevicesAsync>b__2_0() at System.Threading.Tasks.Task1[[System.Collections.Generic.IReadOnlyList1[[Microsoft.MixedReality.WebRTC.VideoCaptureDevice, Microsoft.MixedReality.WebRTC, Version=0.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null]], System.Private.CoreLib, Version=5.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7cec85d7bea7798e]].InnerInvoke()

Thanks for your work.

I have already tried to use it several times, but bumped into mrwebrtc.dll Could you tell me where dll is looking for?

This is the general Windows rule of LoadLibrary(), which is invoked automatically by P/Invoke. Generally this means mrwebrtc.dll needs to be in the same folder as Microsoft.MixedReality.WebRTC.dll (the C# assembly).

Is there any possibility of using this for .net core web applications hosted on Linux platforms?

I think this fixes the issue. I I copied Microsoft.MixedReality.WebRTC.2.0.2\runtimes\win10-x86\native\mrwebrtc.dll to the build output directory. It works for me

By default a console App will have a 'Any CPU' configuration. This confuses the package manager because it has x86 & x64 runtimes so doesn't copy over the runtime correctly. If you create a new configuration, say x64, then it should automatically work.
